This must be some sort of joke... Google certainly hasn't won my heart. Working with Eclipse and their SDK makes me want to throw my computer out the window, along with their phone.
- martythemaniak 16y agoThe title of the article was "Google winning the hearts of developers" not "Google winning the heart of thinkcomp from Hacker News".
- thinkcomp 16y agoWell, perhaps this was my error, but I considered myself a developer as someone who had written Java code using the Android SDK for later deployment on Android devices.
- vito 16y agoWho says you have to use Eclipse? Just use your favorite editor, and run "adb install" to install it to the device or emulator for testing.
- biafra 16y agoYou can use any IDE you want (I use IntelliJ IDEA), and you do not have to use Java either. You can develop in Scala, or via the NDK in about any language you want. Then you can do a lot without using the SDK. But AFAIK you need a small GUI-wrapper around you native code to interact with the user.
